Those of you who are 25-35 may remember an incredible movie (more like a mediocre B movie) with Antonio Banderas chilling with Vikings and although he was an Egyptian poet he was named the 13th warrior, which is the title of the movie. What does this have to do with this article...

LAS VEGAS — Every offseason features a flurry of free agent activity as teams look to bolster their lineups in advance of the upcoming season.
Some, however, feel just fine with what they’ve got.
The Bulls fall into the latter group, after finishing the year with a second round playoff loss to LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers. They’re bringing back everyone from a season...

The point guard position is one of the most saturated positions in the modern NBA, featuring some of the most incredible athletes the NBA has ever seen. There are few teams that have anything less than a competent player at the position, and even fewer looking for a replacement.

As I mentioned in my last article, I was able to get down to Vegas to catch some Summer League action on Saturday.
